The problem

Healthcare damages turn on data most experts can't reach

Billing disputes and fraud cases often hinge on two questions: what a fair price was, and how widespread a pattern is. Answering both takes claims data, coding knowledge and sound statistics.

What was a fair price?

Published payer rates now show what the market actually pays for a service.

How big is the pattern?

Valid sampling and extrapolation that stand up to scrutiny.

Was it coded correctly?

Claim-level review grounded in CPT, HCPCS and ICD-10 rules.
